  1. Shitty throw, but that had no business being a pick six.  SMU was going through the motions trying to bring him down.  SMU is going to continue to try until PSU scores one more TD.  Then they'll quit. 

    Unlike many of you, I don't see this as an indictment on the playoff system.  The better team in this round SHOULD dominate.  But they won't always.

  2. This show is frustrating the hell out of me.  I don't give a shit about Mechanical Vs IT.  They're trying way too hard to make this an ensemble cast, like Walking Dead.  But most of these actors are not good at acting, and their characters are two dimensional (the sheriff is a notable exception).  I fast forward through every scene Common is in, and it hasn't made one bit of difference.

    Season 1 was good because they highlighted the mystery.  There's plenty more of that to be explored in Season 2, yet they've decided to fill it with the tired old "fight the power" narrative.

    I'm not going to bail, but it's pretty much a hate watch right now.

     

  3. Different strokes I guess, but I find that unlistenable.  

    To be fair, I tuned into her more recent stuff, and she is indeed, very talented.  Clearly channeling Amy Winehouse.  

    On the subject of kickass female leads, here's a new favorite of mine:

  5. I'm not super into Christmas movies and CGI dominant movies, nor have I liked anything that the Rock has done outside of Moana and Jumanji.  For whatever reason though I watched this last night, and I actually liked it for what it was.  My expectations could not have possibly been lower, but still.  I doubt I'll re-watch ever, but it was kind of fun.

    Dinnertime is specifically set for everyone but the cook - flexibility is the cook's perogative.

    That's my general principle when I'm at the smoker/grill, but It's harder to say "it's done when it's done", when there are 4 or 5 side dishes being prepared based according to your timeline.  Traditional BBQ is much easier for me because sides are generally cold, reheatable, or non-existent.  I just had to tap the brakes on my turkey, which is fine.

    I a trying the water bath.  One site and Twice Horn say the water must be below 40 degrees.  The Popeyes instructions with the turkey say under 70 degrees.  I wonder if the difference is this is a cooked turkey and not raw.  My water is in the 63 degree range once I have added ice and I am all out of ice now.

    Yes.  Cooked vs Raw.  I thought you had both a raw and a Popeyes.

    Welp, it's in the oven now.  Gonna slather the upper regions with butter when it comes out, kind of depending on the thigh/breast temp differential toward the end.

    My comment was for Beantown, as it sounds like his is still in the bag.  Your situation wouldn't concern me at all though.

  9. Decent credits between the two screenwriters.  The director directed most of these as well.   It's going to be quirky.

    2007: Hot Fuzz

    2010: Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (the two screenwriters collaborated on this one)
